CENTCOM confirms three-wave operation targeting radar and control sites, easing immediate tensions but leaving retaliation risks elevated.
The US military concluded precision strikes on Iranian air defense, radar, and ground control infrastructure near the Strait of Hormuz, according to a CENTCOM statement. The operation, conducted in three waves on June 9, aimed to degrade Iran’s ability to monitor and contest the critical waterway, a key chokepoint for global oil shipments.
